These are the students who need a little more convincing. I strive to create a welcoming and safe environment for all students but I want to make the students who are hesitant feel like coming to me isn't because they are failing. \r\nI have been told by several of these students that they love coming to my room.

We most recently used them to make pumpkin art. \r\nI love my new office chair.
